The game is pretty horrible, I have been tempted to write a review for awhile now, just don't have any sites to publish it on since I quit.
Anyways, it's not going to switch anytime soon. People can purchase the RTW points with real money then trade them for a mass amount of money and items in-game. It's the perfect system.
Hardcore players don't have to pay, but can if they want to and will for a couple months.
Medium players will pay and can use some RTW points for hours in-game when they know they're not going to be active.
And the worst players will purchase RTW points and trade them to become better in-game.
The game itself isn't a bad deal just for the social district and the free hours of action district. Althought Steam promised me 50 hours of action district time, and APB gave 10 for the early-access, yet that 10 is all I have on my account for some reason (maybe it switches to the 50 when the 10 are used up..?). It's basically a graphic design/music editing tool that they attempted to call a game by adding lame, repetitive missions.
Not to mention the security on the game is a joke at this point in time, can't tell you how many people I see running around, not crouched or zoomed in, with their SMG out and they can track you perfectly. Not saying they are using aimbots, but I just didn't realize Rapha cloned himself and created 100 APB characters.
(Wondering if anyone here will even get the reference..)
